Weird thinking how all this crazy 60s psych was created on shitty drugs that aren't half as good as what we have now.
adam sandler fucking sucks
Thought this thread was dead?
Cozy 60s bump
who puts an apostrophe before "jew"? that's honestly the most concerning thing about your post
No. It's Astral Weeks
all great picks, but I'll go with pic related or "An Electric Storm" by White Noise
Van Dyke Parks should also get a mention
BoB is an entry-level Dylan album, far from his best.
JWH is his objective best work. It capture Bob in a unique state- the vigor and youth of mid-60's Dylan is still very much apparent on JWH only the lyrics are considerably more thought out and possess the maturity of his later work such as BOTT.
You need to form your own opinions, user. Don't mindlessly appropriate the opinions of Yea Forums as your own. Blonde on Blonde is the best album in Dylan's electric trilogy- that's all it is.
JWH>BoTT>BoB
You'll realise when you're older.
cohen is onions
Why is Yea Forums so contrarian? Blond on Blond is a masterpiece, you don't have to hate it because others like it.
Not even the best Pink Floyd album from the 60s
I don't hate it. I love it. It's his third best album. It's also an entry level album. It's Unknown Pleasures and JWH is Closer.
I've discussed it a lot with many different people. The people who prefer BoB generally haven't heard much of Dylan beyond the electric trilogy and maybe some of his earlier stuff. It may be in the Yea Forums canon but that's probably just because not many non-Dylan fans have heard JWH.
Listen to JWH. Lyrically, it destroys any of Dylan's previous work.
"There's no line that you can stick your finger through, there's no hole in any of the stanzas. There's no blank filler. Each line has something." – Dylan, 1968, about JWH
Blech what a dumbass
Have you heard JWH?
Yeah it’s great, but your assumption about BoB fans is off base.
Replace the Future with hus debut and I agree. New Skin is very underappreciated.
Consider more than lyricism in weighing the works against each other, though. Not only does Blonde On Blonde have its own share of brilliant songwriting, much more eclectic and enigmatic than that of John Wesley Harding, but Dylan delivers them in a seemingly damaged tone over impeccable, rich instrumentation throughout the entire album, which spans over an hour and makes for an immersive emotional experience. People don't recognize Blonde On Blonde's strangeness enough and seem to forget that no other album sounds like it, and its texture and cadence are more expressive and gorgeous than any on the rest of his work. All of this is impressive and praiseworthy but I haven't even mentioned the distinct satire, ironic wit, nonsensical/black humor and such, attributes juxtaposed (for example) with Sad-Eyed Lady, which is Dylan's most spiritual and reverent piece and a metaphysical magnum opus unsurpassed by any other songwriter.
good comeback to an old post, dumbass
Fair enough, you're probably right about that.
>much more eclectic and enigmatic than that of John Wesley Harding
I disagree. The sounds on BoB are really not that varied. The tracks generally use the same instruments resulting in a similar sound. Not a bad thing, mind you, but wouldn't describe the album as 'eclectic'.
>more expressive and gorgeous than any on the rest of his work
Nonsense.
>makes for an immersive emotional experience
Not comparative. This applies to the majority of Dylan's work.
>the distinct satire, ironic wit, nonsensical/black humor and such
Dylan outgrew the habit of using nonsensical imagery in his lyrics because he realised it was hollow and superficial. People like to read a lot into his lyrics from this period but the truth is Dylan was using the ambiguity of symbols as a means of finding easy rhymes and as filler in his stanzas. With JWH he wasn't just making up a line to go with a rhyme anymore; each line had to advance the story, bring the song forward. There is no wasted language.
>Sad-Eyed Lady, which is Dylan's most spiritual and reverent piece and a metaphysical magnum opus unsurpassed by any other songwriter
You're trying too hard here. Maybe you're right but Dylan himself definitely surpassed Say-Eyed Lady with All Along the Watchtower.
Yes, it's an underrated one but he's got a dozen albums better than it.
>The sounds on BoB are really not that varied
This is true but I was speaking on the lyrical content.
>Nonsense.
What other material of his compares to mixing the raucous rant Rainy Day Women, the intimate and compassionate Just Like A Woman, the
>This applies to the majority of Dylan's work
With all due respect to Highway 61 Revisited and Harding—which are his other two best in my view—the majority of Dylan's work relies on lyrical profundity and doesn't always meet great musical ideas with great execution, a mark of excellence which Blonde On Blonde has. It has much more emotional immediacy to it for its blues expression yet it's much more intelligent, brooding and even existential than most music created in the past century.
>hollow and superficial
What's hollow and superficial is asserting that ambiguity must be a result of carelessness on Dylan's part; yet Blonde On Blonde is truly his most deliberate work. I will agree that JWH has excellent writing but not that Blonde On Blonde has a notable excess of language.
>surpassed Sad-Eyed Lady with All Along the Watchtower
I disagree. All Along the Watchtower has much less mystique and longing to it, though it is also written with impeccable craft.
on another note how in the hell have you gotten digits three times in a row
Al Pacino has an album? Or Cohen is an actor...
i didn't finish my second point but i'm sure you can understand i meant to describe the amazing emotional variety and qualities of the pieces on the album
